Drabble tree!

[kahvi.livejournal.com]

I played with this over at fakenews_fanfic, and I thought it might be fun to try over here. Here's how it works - I post a drabble, and anyone who wants to participate replies to this post with another drabble containing one of the sentences or phrases from the original drabble. The subject line should be the words you took. The next person should continue the trend, stealing a sentence or phrase and beginning their own.

Any particular drabble can be drawn from as many times as you want. If you don't feel like posting 100 words exactly, that's OK. Near-drabbles of approximately 100 words are fine too. It's about having fun, not exact definitions. ;)

It was far too late, and they were far too drunk, which was why they had even ventured near this subject. "Yer not serious," Lister spluttered, beer spilling from the can he was waving. "You've never even had proper sex!"

Rimmer shrugged. "I have, once. Overrated, if you ask me."

"Then it wasn't proper sex," Lister concluded. "Proper sex should make ya see stars. Make the Earth move."

"Are you saying," Rimmer asked, dryly, "that I haven't met the right person yet?"

Lister looked into his eyes just a little too long. "Whatever, man," he mumbled.

The man in the alleyway behind him had, however, followed him all the way from the bar.

This "Ace" thing was not so bad, Rimmer decided. He looked like a twink, for sure, but women loved it, and he had become rather adroit at avoiding conflict. The true test of a man, he decided, was not in how brainlessly he threw himself into the right fight, but how well he rallied other people into it before ducking out himself.

Rimmer sighed, thinking about all of the ways to apologize to someone that large for calling his mother a wombat-faced galoot.

This “Ace” thing was not so bad, Rimmer decided. He was finally a hero, he had standing in the universe, and he was getting more sex in one night than some people get in a lifetime. Sad, lonely people, of course. And the only price was the stupid hair, which he was thinking of changing anyway if that deranged stalker of a computer would let him.

Still, something was wrong. The last time he'd seen Bonjella he'd called her a chirpy, gerbil-faced smeg head just to see how she reacted. Try explaining that to the King of War World!
